Moulin-à-Vent

    • Description :

      Moulin-à-Vent, traditionally known as the "king" of Beaujolais wines for its powerful, full-flavored character, reigns supreme at this estate. Deep, brooding, and quite Burgundian in nature, this is one of the most masculine and age-worthy of all Beaujolais wines.
      Winemaking: Traditional semi-carbonic fermentation in large vats. Aging for 14 months in older barriques. Assemblage takes place in cement vats, after which the wine is bottled.

      Grape varieties :

      100% Gamay

      Vineyard age :

      60-year-old vines

      Soil :

      Sand, schist and pink granite

      Tasting notes :

      Explosive nose of raspberries, red currants, plums; medium body with layers of fruit on the palate, plush texture, with a nice, long finish. The acidity is well balanced by the fruit. Enjoy this quintessential bistro wine with steak frites, roasted lamb shank, or roast chicken.
